"Helen"
Two ladies, who hadn't seen each other in
quite some time, met at the supermarket.
"How are you, Helen?"
"Fine."
"And your husband?"
"Oh, Karl died two weeks ago."
"What?! I hadn't heard. What happened?"
"He went out in the garden to dig up a cabbage
for dinner, had a heart attack and fell over, dead."
"I'm sorry. What did you do?"
"Opened a can of corn instead."

"Don't Anger The Nurse!"
A big shot business man had to spend a couple
of days in the hospital. He was a royal pain to
the nurses because he bossed them around
just like he did his employees.
None of the hospital staff wanted to have
anything to do with him. The head nurse was
the only one who could stand up to him. She
came into his room and announced,
"I have to take your temperature."
After complaining for several minutes, he finally
settled down, crossed his arms and opened
his mouth.
"No, I'm sorry, the nurse stated, "but for this
reading, I cannot use an oral thermometer."
This started another round of complaining,
but eventually he rolled over and bared his
rear end.
After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer,
he heard her announce, "I have to get something.
Now you stay JUST LIKE THAT until I get back!"
She leaves the door to his room open on her
way out. He curses under his breath as he
hears people walking past his door laughing.
After almost an hour, the man's doctor comes
into the room.
"What's going on here?" asked the doctor.
Angrily, the man answers, "What's the matter,
Doc? Haven't you ever seen someone having
their temperature taken?"
After a pause, the doctor confesses, "Well, no.
I guess I haven't. Not with a daffodil, anyway."
